00:00 You know, when I left the space station,
00:02 Node 1 was pretty spartan and immaculate.
00:05 It's kind of accumulated a lot of stuff over the years.
00:08 And with 275 launches to ISS,
00:11 have you guys hit anything for future crews
00:14 or lost something up there that you're still looking for?
00:17 [ Laughter ]
00:19 [ Laughter ]
00:29 Well, we might have found something
00:32 that someone had been looking for for quite a while.
00:37 Our good friend Frank Rubio, who headed home,
00:41 has been blamed for quite a while for eating the tomato,
00:45 but we can exonerate him.
00:49 We found the tomatoes.
00:52 Awesome, awesome.
00:53 I think we'll have probably one more question,
00:56 and then we'll probably hand it back over to Capcom
00:58 and let you guys get back to work.
00:59 But, you know, when you return to Earth,
01:04 what's the one thing that --
01:06 and maybe there's more than one thing --
01:07 that you're going to want to explain to people here on Earth,
01:11 your favorite memory of the International Space Station?
01:28 I think it's a beautiful view of the Earth
01:31 from the International Space Station,
01:34 so that we recognize that we need
01:38 to nurture the Mother Planet Earth.
01:43 Awesome. Thank you.
01:46 Hey, just I'll say a couple words,
01:48 and I'll hand it over to Bob, and then we'll get back to you.
